English artist. Sickert was born in Munich, the eldest son of the Danish painter Oswald Adalbert Sickert. The family moved to London in 1868. After a short period as an actor, Sickert studied art at the Slade School and then under James Whistler in Chelsea when, like Whistler, he took to etching. In 1883 he met Degas in Paris, who became the greatest influence on his style and attitude to art. Though often described as an Impressionist, he was only so to the same limited extent as Degas, constructing pictures from swift notes made on the spot, and never painting in the open air. His later work became broader in treatment and lighter in tone, a late innovation being the Echoes', in which he freely adapted the work of Victorian illustrators. He worked in Dieppe from 1885 to 1905, with occasional visits to Venice, and produced music-hall paintings and views of Venice and Dieppe in dark, rich tones. Although well known in Europe, he did not achieve recognition in the UK until the 1920s. His writings were collected in 1947 under the title A Free House. His works, broadly Impressionist in style, capture subtleties of tone and light, often with a melancholic atmosphere, their most familiar subjects being the rather shabby cityscapes and domestic and music-hall interiors of late Victorian and Edwardian London. Ennui (about 1913; Tate Gallery, London) is a typical interior painting. In his Camden Town' period (1905-14), he explored the back rooms and dingy streets of North London. His zest for urban life and his personality drew together a group of younger artists who formed the nucleus of the Camden Town Group, which played a leading role in bringing post-Impressionism into English art. Some of his paintings viz. 'The Ripper's bedroom' made some Ripperologists suspect him of being the elusive 'Jack the Ripper'. Most of this is based on pure speculation.- Music Department

Richard Strauss was a German composer best known for symphonic poem 'Also sprach Zarathustra' (Thus Spoke Zarathustra, 1896) used as the music score in 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968) by director Stanley Kubrick.
He was born Richard Georg Strauss on June 11, 1864, in Munich, Bavaria (now Germany). His father, named Franz Strauss, was the principal horn player at the Royal Opera in Munich. Young Strauss was taught music by his father. He wrote his first composition at the age of 6. From the age of 10 he studied music theory and orchestration with an assistant conductor of the Munich Court Orchestra. He was also attending orchestral rehearsals. In 1874 Strauss heard operas by Richard Wagner, but his father did not share his son's interest and forbade him to study Wagner's music until the age of 16.
Strauss studied philosophy and art history at Munich University, then at Berlin University. In 1885 he replaced Hans von Bulow as the principal conductor of the Munich Orchestra. Strauss emerged from under his father's influence when he met Alexander Ritter, a composer, and the husband of one of the nieces of Richard Wagner. He abandoned his father's conservative style and began writing symphonic tone poems. In 1894, Strauss married soprano singer Pauline Maria de Ahna. She was famous for being dominant and ill-tempered, but she was also a source of inspiration to Strauss, resulting in the preferred use of the soprano voice in his compositions.
The image of Richard Strauss and his music was abused by the Nazi propaganda machine, to a point of damaging the composer's posthumous reputation. Richard Strauss was trapped in Nazi Germany just as the Russian intellectuals were under Stalin in the Soviet regime. Strauss' name and music was used by the Propaganda Minister Joseph Goebbels, who appointed Strauss, without his consent, to the State Music Bureau, as a mask on the ugly regime. Strauss was commissioned to write the Olympic Hymn for the 1936 Olympics in Berlin. His cautious apolitical position was the only way to survive and to protect his daughter-in-law Alice, who was Jewish.
In 1935 Strauss was fired from his job at the State Music Bureau. He refused to remove from the playbill the name of his friend and opera librettist, the writer Stefan Zweig, who was Jewish. Later Gestapo intercepted a letter from Strauss to Zweig, where Strauss condemned the Nazis. Strauss' daughter-in-law Alice was placed under the house arrest in 1938. In 1942 Strauss managed to move his Jewish relatives to Vienna. There Alice and Strauss's son were later again arrested and imprisoned for two nights. Only Strauss' personal effort saved them. They were returned under house arrest until the end of the Second World War.
Richard Strauss died on September 8, 1949, in Garmish-Partenkirchen, Germany at the age of 85. Strauss' symphonic poem 'Also sprach Zarathustra' (Thus Spoke Zarathustra, 1896) was recorded under the baton of Herbert von Karajan and was used as the music score in '2001: A Space Odyssey' by director Stanley Kubrik, as well as in many other films.- Max Neal was born on 26 March 1865 in Munich, Germany.

Karl Valentin, whose real name is Valentin Ludwig Fey, began an apprenticeship as a carpenter in 1897 after attending a private school. Two years later he met Gisela Royes, his future wife. Two daughters were born from this union. Between 1899 and 1901, Valentin worked as a journeyman carpenter. The following year he attended the Strebel comedy school in Munich. He made his first appearance on October 1, 1901 under his stage name Karl Valentin. His father died during this performance. Valentin then ran the Falk und Fey shipping business together with his mother, which was sold as a bankrupt company in 1906.
In the same year, Valentin moved with his family to Zittau in Saxony, his mother's hometown. In 1907 he started a tour. But success with the self-built musical device "Living Orchestrion" failed to materialize and Valentin returned to Munich. There he initially worked in an inn. From 1908 onward he had success with his monologues "The Aquarium" and was hired by the Volkssängerbühne in the "Frankfurter Hof". Valentin's comedy was based on the grotesque language of his long body, on funny puns and slapstick. His jokes often hit the audience or himself. The pessimism and tragic character of his comedy had a real background.
Valentin often chafed against reality, against official or social circumstances or against his fellow human beings. In 1911 he met Elisabeth Wellano, his later stage partner as Lisl Karlstadt. During this time he married Gisela Royes. In 1912/13, the first silent film that has survived to this day was released with the title "Karl Valentin's Wedding", in which he exposed the marriage institution to satire. In his enthusiasm for the medium of film, Karl Valentin made around 40 films, which were often based on his stage jokes. In 1914 the first works on the program "Tingeltangel" were created, which also contains the well-known sketch "The Orchestra Rehearsal". Exempt from military service for health reasons, Karl Valentin gave almost 120 performances in hospitals during the First World War.
From 1915 he directed the Munich cabaret "Wien-München". Together with Berthold Brecht, Valentin parodied his play "Drumming in the Night" at the Munich Kammerspiele. In 1922/23 the comedian appeared alongside Brecht, Erich Engel, Lisl Karlstadt and Blandine Ebinger in the surrealist film "Mysteries of a Hairdressing Salon". During this time Valentin performed abroad for the first time. His first guest appearance in Berlin in 1923 was enthusiastically received by Alfred Kerr and Kurt Tucholsky. He was called a "word picker" because of his linguistic acrobatics. Valentin's last known silent film, "Der Sonderling", was made in 1929. Two years later he opened his own theater in the Goethe Hall on Leopoldstrasse in Munich.
Clashes with the police arose because of fire safety requirements. In 1932 he took part in his first sound film "The Bartered Bride". He adopted a skeptical attitude towards the Nazi regime, but made no political statements. In 1934, Karl Valentin opened his "Panoptikum" as an exhibition of horror and nonsense items such as a glass of Berlin air. But the project initially failed until it was reopened the following year - but with the same failure. After the Nazi henchmen banned the film "The Inheritance", in which Valentin took part, because of "miserable tendencies", he rarely received film offers. From 1939 onward, the comedian and his new partner and lover Annemarie Fischer had success with the "Ritterspelunke" project, a mixture of panopticon, pub and theater.
Disputes with Nazi authorities were one reason for the closure of the economically successful "Ritterspelunke". The room was supposed to become an air raid shelter. From 1940 to 1947 he did not appear in public, but wrote many dialogue pieces and poems. His last play, "Family Sorrows," was written in 1943. Due to economic hardship, he became a journalist for the Munich Feldpost. After the war, Valentin tried to stay afloat by selling home-made household items. The radio series on Bavarian Radio "It's about Karl Valentin" was discontinued because listeners complained about the excessive pessimism.
Radio and record recordings followed in 1946 and a joint appearance with Lisl Karlstadt the following year.
Karl Valentin died on February 9, 1948 in Planegg near Munich of a cold caused by malnutrition.- Georg Vogelsang was born on 15 May 1883 in Munich, Bavaria, German Empire. He was an actor, known for Das Geheimnis von Schloß Elmshöh (1925), Wer bist du, den ich liebe? (1949) and Die Sehnsucht des Herzens (1951). He died on 21 December 1952 in Schliersee, Bavaria, Germany.
- Katia Mann was born on 24 July 1883 in Munich, Bavaria, Germany. She was married to Thomas Mann. She died on 25 April 1980 in Kilchberg, Kanton Zürich, Switzerland.
- Otto Sauter-Sarto was born on 29 April 1884 in Munich, Germany. He was an actor, known for The Csardas Princess (1934), The Blue from the Sky (1932) and Mach' mich glücklich (1935). He died on 19 January 1958 in Berlin, Germany.
- Feuchtwanger graduated from high school in 1903. From 1903 he studied German, history and philosophy in Munich and Berlin. He moved in the Munich artistic scene and began his first literary attempts with theater reviews, stories and dramas. In 1907 he received his doctorate. phil. with a work on Heinrich Heine's "Rabbi von Bacherach". Because of the restrictions for Jews at German colleges and universities at the time, he dropped his habilitation plans. From 1907 he initially worked as a theater critic and dramaturge in Munich. In 1912 he married Marta Loeffler. In 1914 he went on a trip to Tunisia with his wife, during which he narrowly escaped internment by the French.
Lion Feuchtwanger became one of the first writers to express criticism of the exuberant patriotism of the Germans and against the war in plays during the First World War. His short military service ended with his discharge due to short-sightedness. In 1918 he experienced the revolution in Munich and worked on the dramatic novel "Thomas Wendt". In 1920 he met Bertold Brecht and Marieluise Fleißer there. A friendly relationship developed with Brecht, which led to them working together. Feuchtwanger realized several theater projects with him, incorporating influences from this collaboration into his epic theater. In 1924 the two of them worked on the play "Life of Edward the Second of England".
In 1913, Feuchtwanger's historical novel "The Ugly Duchess Margarete Maultasch" about ugliness and outsiderness was published. In 1925 he moved to Berlin and in 1927 his play "The Petroleum Island" was premiered. After the National Socialists came to power in 1933, Feuchtwanger was expatriated. His house in Berlin was searched, looted and confiscated, and manuscripts were also lost. At that time he was on a lecture tour in the USA. He went to Sanary-sur-Mer in the south of France and to Moscow in 1937, where he co-edited the exile magazine "Das Wort", which was published in Germany, from 1936 to 1939. From 1939 to 1940 he was housed in an internment camp in Aix-en-Provence, France.
Through the intervention of Eleanor Roosevelt, he was released and fled to the USA via Portugal. From 1941 he lived near Los Angeles. Due to his rapprochement with the communists and the persecution of socialists and communists under Joseph McCarthy, he was unable to become a citizen. Lion Feuchtwanger's literary focus is now on the historical novel. He did not see it as a representation or retracing of history, but wanted to use it to communicate generally valid truths, which he based on historical material and figures as well as on the conflicts highlighted. The first major success came in 1818 with the drama "Jud Süß". He then expanded it into a novel, published in 1925. But before that he had difficulty finding a publisher.
Feuchtwanger's first contemporary historical novel, "Success. Three Years of History of a Province" (1930), not only tells the story of the rise of the Nazis in Bavaria, but also explains the socio-psychological prerequisites and the functioning of the interaction between politics, the judiciary, large industry and the crime of German citizens . "Success" became a highlight in Feuchtwanger's literary work. He later combined the contemporary historical novels "Success", "The Oppenheim Siblings" (1933) and "Exile" (1940) into the trilogy "The Waiting Room". The Josephus trilogy consisting of the works "The Jewish War" (1932), "The Sons" (1935), and "The Day Will Come" (1945) occupies a central position in Lion Feuchtwanger's oeuvre.
This is also about the fate of the Jewish people based on the writer Flavius Josephus in a non-Jewish environment. Feuchtwanger also reflects on his own literary work. In 1936 the satire on Hitler "The False Nero" was published. The novel "Exile", published in 1940, makes Feuchtwanger's approach to socialism clear. In the report "Unholdes France" (1942) he describes his experiences in the internment camp. In 1945 the collaboration with Bert Brecht was resumed with the play "The Story of Simone Machard". In 1948 he created the play "Wahn or The Devil in Boston" about the witch hunt in Massachusetts - the reason for this work was his experiences of the persecution of communists in the USA.
With the two works "The Jewess of Toledo" and "Jefta and his Daughter" Feuchtwanger turned back to the fate of the Jewish people. His other works include "Peace, a Burlesque Game" (1918), "The Prisoners of War" (1919), "Three Anglo-Saxon Pieces" (1927) - George Sylvester Viereck was born on 31 December 1884 in Munich, Bavaria, Germany. He died on 18 March 1962 in Holyoke, Massachusetts, USA.
